Bio-Rad Mini PROTEAN Tetra Cell Electrophoresis System

Product Information

The Bio-Rad Mini PROTEAN Tetra Cell Electrophoresis System is the perfect tool for vertical mini gel electrophoresis, featuring easy-to-use functionality and accommodating one to four Mini-PROTEAN precast or handcast gels. This system allows researchers to run 2-D gels in less than a day, usually taking less than an hour to run one to four precast or handcast mini gels. It is also adaptable for use with the Mini Trans-Blotelectrophoresis cell for western blotting. The system's benefits include thermoplastic casting gaskets forming a tight seal to ensure leak-free casting, precise alignment, and simultaneous access to both gels. Key facility applications include polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE or SDS-PAGE), 2-D gel electrophoresis, new sample screening, and evaluating sample preparation conditions.
